Oh my, are you looking at me?!? Let’s meet! My name is Dakota and people call me “non-stop fun”. I’m about 4 years old and 12 petite lbs. I’m a Chisenji; a Chihuahua and Basenji mix. I love other dogs and I’m totally taking applications for doggie siblings and DFFs (Doggie Friends Forever).
I’m shy with new people at first, I might bomb our first date, but give me a little time and you won’t regret it. I’m silly; I love loquats, car rides, cuddling and of course napping! I’m house-trained, a great leash-walker and pretty good with my recall unless I’m chasing a cat or squirrel. Hey, I am a dog 
I was rescued from a puppy mill in East Oakland with 46 other dogs, it was a rough start to life but I’m thriving now. If you want to read my story, my amazing foster mom wrote this article: http://baywoof.com/featured-article/dakota-a-puppy-mill-pup-needs-a-home/. It’s tough waiting for my forever home, but I haven’t lost hope! I’m on Instagram trying to show the world how amazing I am @adopt_dakota. I know my people are out there, they’ll be patient and understanding and I’ll love them unconditionally.
